Bethel Library Preps for Fairfield County's Giving Day

The Bethel Public Library is encouraging the community to participate in Giving Day on March 10.

March 10 is our region’s biggest charitable event of the year--Fairfield County’s Giving Day! The goal is to raise over $1 million in 24 hours through online donations to 400 local nonprofit organizations. Spearheaded by Fairfield County’s Community Foundation and sponsored by Bank of America, Giving Day encourages every community member to “give where you live.”

The Friends of the Bethel Public Library asks everyone age 18+ to visit FCGives.org all day long on March 10 and give to any of the registered nonprofits, including the Bethel Public Library! Donate as little as $10. Each donation adds up, plus you can help us win over $25,000 in cash prizes. Go to www.bethellibrary.org to find out how your donation will help your hometown Library.
